Hadith 4837
وَعَن عُقْبةَ بن عامرٍ قَالَ: لَقِيتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقُلْتُ: مَا النَّجَاةُ؟ فَقَالَ: «أَمْلِكْ عَلَيْكَ لِسَانَكَ وَلْيَسَعْكَ بَيْتُكَ وَابْكِ عَلَى خَطِيئَتِكَ» . رَوَاهُ أَحْمد وَالتِّرْمِذِيّ
Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I met the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and I asked, "What is the means of salvation?" He (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Control your tongue, let your house be sufficient for you, and weep over your sins." Weak, narrated by Ahmad and Tirmidhi.
